Rack Optimized Discrete I/O
Overview In this example a ControlLogix processor communicates with FLEX I/O via the
1794-AENTR adapter using a rack optimized connection. The processor reads
data from all digital input modules and sends data to all digital output modules
configured in a rack connection simultaneously.
The following table lists where to find specific information within this chapter.
Set Up the Hardware In this example, a ControlLogix chassis contains the Logix5572 controller in
slot 0 and a 1756-EN2TR bridge module in slot 1. The adapter is mounted on a
DIN rail with a 1794-IB16 digital input module and 1794-OB16 digital output
module. You also need a power supply (not shown) for the FLEX I/O.
